30 Years Of Chinese Reform

ADVERTISEMENT

Published: December 19, 2008

China celebrated its increasing prosperity Thursday in marking the launch of a free-market revolution 30 years ago. President and Communist Party leader Hu Jintao urged more economic reform while vowing it would not lead to Western-style democracy. Hu entered the Great Hall of the People at the head of a line of China's top communist leaders - more than 6,000 party leaders and military officials who politely applauded throughout his remarks. Economic reforms have made China the fourth-largest economy in the world, but they have not led to a loosening of its authoritarian system.
